Oh, I'm not. I see a bit of self-hating in the OP regardless of political leaning. He's obviously trying to set himself apart from other gays and possibly using his membership in the Republican Party as part of that. He resorted to stereotypes of gay men. The gay Republicans I know aren't self-hating, and I don't feel sad for them at all.

It could be, but if that were the case, he wouldn't have gone on about
how he's not like those other gays. It sounds like he may have thrown the Republican thing in there to emphasize how different he is.
